Massage place

[Npetersen]

Im cleaning a massage place thos weekend and I'm a little nervous about being able to get the massage oil out.
The last time I did a place like this really had a hard time with that real oily stuff.
Anyone have any suggestions for this crud?

 

[BradFenstermaker]

I have always just put down my high ph commercial prespray. If its really caked on, spray scrub extract with as hot of water as you got. Always precondition customer that not 100% of oil will be removed.

A touch of Citrus Solvent may help also, but don't like added more to rinse out if I dont have too.

Extract like normal & give it an extra dry pass... Squirt a little Snake Oil on it and bonnet it off.

Flex w/ citrus and nuke it! Never had a prolem with any previous Pre sprays either

 

[Goomer]

You sure it's massage oil?? .........

agree..pretty sure that stuff will take it right out......I have done a few of these before........not sure if they were rubbing in oils or marinating them in it........the stuff was everywhere......heat will be your best friend.....

If you do a good job and get the stains out I'd call that a happy ending.

Any good enzyme pre spray, some dwell and agitation should do well.
Do not spray too heavily and reduce pressure while cleaning, as it can push oil into carpet's pad. Areas with some saturation may require another run after drying. I do those heavily oiled areas first which gives me some time to check and re-clean if needed.

 

[steve frasier]

if you did a fiber ID it might be olefin and make the cleaning a little more tougher then normal

 

[Npetersen]

Thanks everyone.. My only concern with scrubbing is that they have the carpet squares which they have been replacing once it gets to bad. I wouldn't want them to come loose as I scrub with a 175.

 

[ruff]

If they have carpet tiles, you'll need to make sure that there are no issues with the glue. Some here ran into some issues with the carpeted tile edges popping out.
Test!
If it is a glue down tiles, no need to worry about transfer to pad, need to worry about proper flushing. Going over with a bonnet as a quick last step will give it a better finished look and reduce chance of wicking.

If it was a massage parlor round here, I'd be more concerned with the "happy endings" product. Grease Eraser, S&G, Hot Sauce modifier, lot's of flow and heat. RX20 might work well on the tiles.

Getting ready to do a Project like this myself.

Home based business. Great potential client as they are also school teachers : )

My fear is the oil extraction from a Residential Nylon.

I think I may just Nuke it w S&G boosted w Gain : ), maybe Spot Claw for show and play wit my toys a lil.

I feel for you Chris, if only I understood what you're saying.

I ran the above by Google translate. They didn't recognize your dialect.

Could you have the wife or a trusted family member translate for us

It was construed as a Threat to the School so they evacuated it. My guess is it had something to do with a Bomb!

Sharpie Markers are a Huge hit here, they sponsor races n stuff : )

I'd be more concerned with getting paid in cash instead of trade or barter.......


Good prespray, good flush and get it dry dry dry....

Hot Dawg !

Hesitant to try an achieve any pics of the place as the guy watched alot.

Neat place but this was white carpet and the oil had yellow in it.

Sloshed it w a product I guess I cant discuss anymore to no avail. Carpet was clean as a whistle bit the spots!


WD40 Bombed it and let out a Woo Wee right there.
Naturally this tends to bring the clients in with ya and it did. So he watched the process.

Flush n dry well : )

Big Big Winner!

I did one of these in January. I clobbered it with high PH pre-spray that I'd spiked with generous amounts of citrus and oxygen. I worked it in with an encap brush and then dwelled for 15 minutes. Rinsed with an alkaline emulsifier and then encapped that carpet to ensure no wickback and no oily appearance.

Took bloody ages......

Home based business so....... yeah...... kind of a few questions there I'm too scared to ask. Customer didn't like the idea of photos being taken, first objection I'd had actually. Mayhaps this is to do with the "home" er - ah "business" they were running.

In fact the "nature" of the massage business is the reason i put the oxygen in the mix. You just can't be too careful......

I had a chuckle at the end..... I was writing up the statement and the chick just says "would you perhaps like to do a contra". Never had a proposition like that put to me. I just mentioned that might work for some cleaners, but I have a family and taking care of the "remittance" in the usual way was the only option......

She had this HUGE smirk the entire time......

WD-40????? This must me an trick I haven't learned yet. Please enlighten me.

WD-40????? This must me an trick I haven't learned yet. Please enlighten me.

WD40 contains a lot of distilled petroleums which are light, volatile solvents that dissolve oils and grease like using gasoline to wash engine parts does. It offers less working time that citrus but while it is wet and in contact with the oily soils it dissolves them quickly and completely in most cases. Very effective at oil spot removal. It does contain fish oils however so thorough extraction to remove the residue is vital after use.

Sorry Grant, WD40 does not contain fish oil, that tale has been floating around for years. From WD40's own website:
